If you didn't buy another cigar, how long would your current stock last?

[mgcrunch]

If you never bought another cigar again, how many days/weeks/months/years would you project your humidor(s) would last you?

My smoking habits are erratic. None the week before a small race, two weeks abstinence before a big race, sometimes 10 cigars between Friday night and Sunday. Sometimes zero in a week, I'm just too busy. Based on 4 cigars per week, averaged over the course of the year... I'm projecting 9 or 10 years.

[garublador]

At my rate of about half a cigar per week and having somewhere around 50 cigars that puts me right around the 2 year mark. I'd guess that I probably estimated a bit low on my average over the next two years so it's probably a bit less than that, so somewhere from 6 months to 2 years is probably right.

[tmoran]

2-5 years, as long as I can keep buying pipe tobacco :encouragement:

[projectsunfire]

average of 5 a week so just about 3 years worth.

[Branzig]

There are times I won't smoke a cigar for months. Other times they're all I smoke in a week. Depends on my mood. I've sold off and given away so much of my stock over the past 4 years, but I'd still probably last 3-5 years with what I have.

Once my coolidor is empty I probably won't restock it. So after that I may have to start buying again lol.

[OldSkoolTarHeel]

Like everybody else so far, my habit is quite erratic, but I also don't know exactly how many I have, so I'm thinking 2-5 years as well. Possibly more.

[Sticky B]

My smoking may be erratic, but I got a lot of gars...

Still, I'd assume I'm still in the 5-10 year camp

[Horseshoe]

3-5 years at 2-3 a week. I would get by many more years with a pipe substituted in here and there.

[Engineer99]

Around 4 a week, and with my two semi full coolers, desktop, between 2-3 years.

[Ropey]

Bout a year, but the last month would be spent smoking crap :(

[Cool Breeze]

Not long.
Speaking for cigars only I could only last a couple of months.
I've been buying mostly pipe tobacco here lately so I could probably enjoy smoking one or the other for a couple of years at my current rate.

[Old Smokey]

At 3 a week I could last about 2 years.

[herman]

4 years

[jp1979]

2 years at 10 a week

[anthony d]

I am down to less than 40 sticks, but lately I have only been smoking one a month or so.

[TCBSmokes]

366. So, one year and a day.

Holy schnikeys! :abnormal:

[DLtoker]

I'm going to go ahead and put my estimation at 10 years plus...:stupid:

Holy schnikeys! :abnormal:

Yup! I have flex Fridays once a month, so two on Friday is easy. Sometimes it'll be three. Then if I'm hanging with the boys on Saturday/Sunday, four makes quick work of each day.

[Lynn]

let me look around 60 cigars, gonna be knocking on your door in 9days,11hrs,23min...get out the coffee...

[jp1979]

Have you ever counted them all? I mean open up every box, bag, everything and count what's in there? I have done it once and was surprised at how low the number was compared to what it looked like.

[DLtoker]

I had fully inventoried everything on a spread sheet but somehow the file disappeared within the last month. I've had a lot outgoing in the past two months and my last numbers were around 4300. The pictures don't capture the layers well...

[bluenoser]

Current rate of 1 a week it'd be somewhere in the 6 month range, tho when the weather warms up stock will deplete at a much faster rate, unless I get hooked on pipe smoking

:cough cough: Excellent! :cough cough: :)

[Cardinal]

I know exactly how many I have, and at current rate I'd fall in the 2-5 years range.

If I knew I couldn't get any more, my consumption rate would drop and I'd make them last a decade or two.

[zeebee]

I'm in the 10+ year camp. I don't necessarily have a HUGE stock, but unfortunately smoke way too little.

this puts you as having 70 to 85 boxes of 25 in ea. in your collection now. Not too shabby.

[steelman]

I usually have 1 every other day and at that pace I would say 6 months to 2 years.

[Jaybird]

I figure I have about 2-5 years of cigars at current rate. I only get about 3-4 a week in most the time. But if I knew I couldn't buy another cigar EVER I would probably only smoke 2 or less a week...

Cheers

My current inventory is 121 (yes, I keep a spreadsheet). I don't want to have to buy a bigger house, so I keep my inventory modest. Plus, I've still got a kid in college :) That would last abt 6-9 months. I probably have a few years' worth of pipe tobacco in the cabinet. & enough whole leaves in my tobacco library for another year or so worth of cigars and pipe tobacco.

When this question comes up, though, I'm reminded of a BOTL co-worker who has over 3500 cigars in his stash.

[Redneck_toy]

I'd only last about two months. Smoking them as fast as I'm buying them.

[Herf N Turf]

Funny, I've actually been thinking about this lately. I went with 5-10 years, based on my current smoking habits. I always promise myself I'll smoke more and didn't want to depress myself with going >10.

with all the bombs you've been getting that probably added 6 months....

[Usafvet509]

At the rate of 4/wk (wish), I'd project a year and maybe a half, too

[defetis]

Less than two years for a fellow missouri native is unacceptable. I will change this for you soon. Get a new tupperdore going :pipe:

[Usafvet509]

Joel, behave lol. Still smarting from your previous hit. Heather and I will soon execute a double review on the Fallen Angels that you sent, by the way.

[huskers]

I suppose it would last until I smoke the last one.

[El Whedo]

Well I smoke one to three cigars a week in warm weather. (I smoke my pipe every day year round.)

We get about six months a year with out snow. So I smoke 25 to 75 cigars a year. I have enough cigars (at this rate) to last ten to thirty years.

[Hermit]

Mine will last longer than I will. :D
Since I became primarily a pipe smoker,
my stash turned into a life-time supply.
My son gets whatever is left when I check out.

[Demuths1770]

not a huge colection pusing over 200 so i would say maybe a year

[ChiefIlliniwek]

I've got exactly 300 sticks currently, which really appeals to my OCD. At the current rate of 1-2 sticks a week that's anywhere from 5.75 to 3 years.

[frodo]

About 500 sticks so maybe 5yrs. I blame Bum members - deals were too good to pass up!!!

[Cameradude]

8 to 9 years at average smoking rate of 3 per week. Right now smoking way less because of winter. But as soon as nice weather returns, hopefully my consumption rate returns back to form.

[Chad202]

Less than a MONTH. Maybe. I really need to work on my self-control. :shame:

[b4z00k4]

4-5 years based on the current size of my collection and the average rate that I smoke (2 per week).
